Volunteering

St. Thomas the Apostle School values and relies on parent volunteers in order to thrive as a Catholic school community. The time and talents that parents share help build and strengthen our school family, and reinforce the importance of an active school life in all our students.

Our parent organization The Home & School Association plans many activities throughout the school year. To find the volunteer opportunity that’s right for you, please go to our Parent Volunteer Guideand discover the camaraderie and gratification that comes from volunteering at St. Thomas the Apostle!

In order to ensure the safety of our students, participation in a Virtus Training Workshop and a background check are required for all employees and volunteers.

Background Checks

Background checks are processed through the Chancery of the Archdiocese of Hartford. Interested parties should complete a form. A processing fee of $20 is charged to each new parent through the tuition bill.

Anyone wishing to participate in any student-centered activities in or out of school must complete the background form and submit it to the office.
